They could be smart quotation marks which you can tun off under options on
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
the file menu, I think it is the format option. Rose Combs rosecombs@Q.com

Subject: RE: "Quote" verbalized in "say all" in Word 2010 Hi, Dave. Nothing special about these quotation marks. From what you and Ted say, you don't experience this problem. I wonder why I do with my system? I appreciate your other suggestions, helpful as always. But I'd prefer not to tinker with punctuation settings or the dictionary if there's a more specific solution. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:jfw-bounces@...] On Behalf Of Farfar Carlson Sent: Friday, April 12, 2013 12:47 PM To: The Jaws for Windows support list. Subject: Re: "Quote" verbalized in "say all" in Word 2010 Adrian, I'm thinking that this is because those quotes are not the simple quotes we usually find with other apps like Notepad, but one of those special characters like rtm copyright, that are generated automatically by MS-Word. My first thought is to highlight one of those quotes and use the JAWS dictionary manager to substitute a less-offending or a blank space character. See if that works. I believe the true solution is to go into the settings center in the pronunciation section, and change the level (none, some, most, all) to a different level. Of course I can't remember whether to reduce or increase, but a little trial-and-error should make it work.

JAWS says "quote" whenever a line ends with a quotation mark. What makes it even more distracting is that JAWS has paused after the period, so the quote" seems to belong to the next line. Can anyone suggest how to eliminate this gnat? I have JAWS 14 and Win7. My punctuation is set to "some," and I'd prefer not to switch between punctuation settings each time I stop 'say all" in order to edit. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
